Did you really just come in the NBA thread saying "No NBA season?" and then saying "fine".

yeah, get the **** out. we're all pissed at the players/owners as well as ticket and food prices, but we want ******* pro basketball. We're not ok with this ****. We want to see the ******* NBA this year, and both sides need to get their heads out of their asses and fix this ****

I think the players will eventually cave. There are just too many players who need the money and can't afford to lose a season.

Well, the thing is, that the players with the most influence are the ones who least need the money. No one cares about what Royal Ivey or Terence Williams think, they care about what Kobe Bryant and Lebron James have to say.

Eff the NBA. It's the worst of the big three leagues and they will soon find that if they don't have a season, not that many people will care.

If they skip the whole season, there will be a lot less money to go around once they do get back to playing. The idiot players are fighting for more of a percentage when many owners are losing money. Dumbasses.

The league has been hurting for years and only last year had there been a bit more interest. That's all gone. We've got football and college basketball. And in the spring we have baseball and college basketball.

And I guess that dorky white people have hockey. YES THIS IS A TROLL BUT IT'S ALL TRUE!!! :) :)

From what I understand (and it's impossible to be sure with the PR spin going on by both sides), the players accepted a 50/50 split of BRI. The roadblock is/was small market owners trying to impede player movement.

Edit- 66 game season starting on Christmas. Have to think there is going to be a lot of back to backs and a lot of quick traveling, working against the older teams like the Celtics, Spurs, Lakers, Mavs etc. All things considered a 66 game season coming out of this shitstorm is awesome.

Jesus Christ, I was about to say yeah it's a weak class but then give some mid level guys, but I can't even do that. Lame. A bunch of decent role players I guess. Marc Gasol is probably the best of the bunch, and he's restricted so I really doubt he doesn't stay in Memphis.
